Your password is near expiration? Okay, enter "Ctrl+Alt+Delete" and change your password. It is not an easy task when you work in multiple remote desktop sessions. How to do it inside RDP (RDP in RDP etc.)?

Note: sure thing you can run "Ctrl+Alt+End" combination but it will work only in one level. If you open a session inside current one it will not work. It just popups a password change menu from first session.

The PowerShell script below provides NTFS permissions report for folders. It includes Path, Identity, Rights and Owner information. Also it has a note if permissions are inherited or not. The script contains some limitations (path over 260 in lengths and some special characters) but in most cases I found it very useful. Especially if you need some quick overview of permissions.
